Air pollution in China and other Asian countries is having far-reaching impacts on weather patterns across the Northern Hemisphere, a study suggests.
Researchers have found that pollutants are strengthening storms above the Pacific Ocean, which feeds into weather systems in other parts of the world.
The effect was most pronounced during the winter.
The study is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Lead author Yuan Wang, from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology, said: \"The effects are quite dramatic. The pollution results in thicker and taller clouds and heavier precipitation.\"
Toxic atmosphere
Parts of Asia have some of the highest levels of air pollution in the world.
In China\'s capital, Beijing, pollutants frequently reach hazardous levels, while emissions in the Indian capital, Delhi, also regularly soar above those recommended by the World Health Organization.
This has dire consequences for the health of those living in these regions, but there is growing evidence that there are other impacts further afield.
To analyse this, researchers from the US and China used computer models to look at the effect of Asia\'s pollution on weather systems.
The team said that tiny polluting particles were blown towards the north Pacific where they interacted with water droplets in the air.
This, the researchers said, caused clouds to gr...

A study by scientists from Texas, California and Washington state has found that pollution from Asia, much of it originating in China, is causing more intense cyclones, increased precipitation and more warm air in the mid-Pacific moving towards the north pole.
Researchers also say that this could be the cause of recent intense winter weather in North America. Results from the decade-long research project were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
The scientists used advanced computer models to study interactions between clouds and fine airborne particles known as aerosols. Particular focus was placed on man made aerosols, such as those emitted from vehicles and coal-fired power plants. According to the scientists\' research, air pollution from Asia directly affects the storm pattern over the Pacific Ocean.
These aerosols, which travel east, cause changes in storm patterns over the Pacific Ocean by causing clouds to grow denser, creating more intense storms over the water.
\"The Pacific storm track is a major driving force over global weather patterns,\" according to the study\'s lead author Yuan Wang, a post-doctorate fellow at the NASA U.S. Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
\"The modulated storm track can be linked to abnormal weather behavior in the mid-latitudes of the Northern hemispher...

Air Pollution in China Causing More Powerful Storms in US

Air Pollution in China Causing More Powerful Storms in US

According to a team of American scientists, storms over the Pacific Ocean and the United States might be more intense because of the high levels of air pollution being put into the atmosphere from China. Using advanced computer models, the researchers found that the large amount of air pollution in Asia, made up of airborne particles called aerosols in the atmosphere, are circulated by global weather patterns.
According to a team of American scientists, storms over the Pacific Ocean might be more intense because of the high levels of air pollution being put into the atmosphere from Asia, notably China, possibly leading to unstable weather patterns in the US.
Using advanced computer models, the researchers found that the large amount of air pollution in Asia, made up of airborne particles called aerosols in the atmosphere, are circulated by global weather patterns.
Data from the computer models shows increased precipitation and stronger Pacific storm tracks caused by manmade aerosols from Asia.
Ellie Highwood, a climate physicist at the University of Reading is quoted as saying: \"Mid-latitude storms develop off Asia and they track across the Pacific, coming in to the west coast of the US. The particles in this model are affecting how strong those storms are, how dense the clouds are, and how much rainfall comes out of those storms.\"

Pollution In China Could Be Causing Snowy US Winters

A number of extreme weather events, from cold snaps to storms, have hit the US in recent years and though climate change is the usual suspect, NASA physicists believe there\'s another source of trouble.
Pollution in China may be playing a hand in the elements’ odd behaviors.
Johnathan Jiang, who works at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, told NPR that, \"Over the past 30 years or so, man-made emission centers have shifted from traditional industrialized countries to fast, developing countries in Asia.\"
The particles produced there rise into the atmosphere and get picked up by the jet stream.
Once globally airborne, they can impact cloud development and storm systems.
Among the most significant that are intensified by the pollutants are those that hover around the North Pacific.
Those, in turn, could well be influencing the movements of the polar jet stream across the US, which as its name implies, carries cold and sometimes unbearable weather around.
Though the researchers haven’t determined the full extent of such activity, they have made a link between its history and that of industrialization in Asia.

A study published in Nature Geoscience claims the U.S.’ effort to cut ozone levels have gone to waste due to pollution arriving on the west coast from China.
Observations of the phenomena were made using satellites coupled with computer models of how air-borne molecules travel in the lower atmosphere.
According to the study, from 2005 to 2010, the US managed to cut ozone-producing nitrous oxide emissions by 20 percent by imposing strict standards for motor vehicles and industry. During the same period of time, however, China\'s growth pushed its own ozone levels up by about 7 percent.
Half of the increase in China came from the ground up, while the other half descended from the stratosphere. Although the study says that some of that pollution may have been blown to China from India and other parts of Asia.
In the same way that the dominant westerly winds blow China’s air pollution into the troposphere, straight across the Pacific Ocean, and into the United States, causing ozone levels to rise again.
According to the study lead researcher Willem Verstraeten, of the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute, local and national efforts to fight pollution could have a limited impact if the problem is not also dealt at an international level.

NASA | Scientists Link Faraway Fires To High Ozone Levels In Pacific

NASA-funded scientists have traced the origins of mysterious pockets of high ozone concentrations and low water vapor in the air above the western Pacific Ocean near Guam to fires burning in Southeast Asia and in Africa, half a world away.
These pockets of ozone—a powerful greenhouse gas—are three times more concentrated than surrounding air and are found at around 30,000 feet in the lower part of Earth’s atmosphere known as the troposphere, within the cruising altitude of most commercial airliners. As a greenhouse gas, ozone in the troposphere is an important contributor to global warming, but because it varies widely in where it occurs and how long it stays aloft, its true impact on climate change is hard to determine.
Researchers studying the air over Guam during the winter of 2014 during a pair of airborne field campaigns captured a comprehensive picture of the chemicals traveling with the ozone—chemicals such as hydrogen cyanide and acetonitrile, which originate in fires. Using a data-driven computer model, they then traced the ozone-laden air pockets back 10 to 15 days in most cases—right back to fires in either Southeast Asia, about 2,000 miles away, or tropical Africa, over 8,000 miles away.

Snow Still in Japan, Smog in China, Storms in the Philippines / 16 Jan

This update discusses something for everyone. From the continued snowfall in northern Japan to smog and fog in china.
First we talk about the storm pushing off to the northern pacific, behind it cold air continues to plunge in out of siberia fueling sea effect snow.
That same cold air is accompanied by high pressure which is causing wide spread gradational cooling in eastern china, this is resulting in overnight radiation fog. Yet the problem here is the high pressure also is keeping in pollutants causing dangerous smog.
Further south at the southern end of the cold air the philippines are seeing thunderstorms flare up in visayas, while to the north of there temperatures are dropping in to the teens in Luzon.
